Time in Ghana
The western African country Ghana observes a single time zone, denoted as Greenwich Mean Time (GMT; UTC±00:00). Ghana shares this time zone with several other countries, including fourteen in western Africa where it was formerly known as Western Sahara Standard Time (WSST). Ghana does not have an associated daylight saving time (DST). It previously observed DST as the erstwhile Gold Coast under British rule between 1919 and 1942, and 1950 and 1956.
